With studies over, I’m off to New Zealand. Today we did a road trip from Christchurch to Queenstown. The South Island is turning out more beautiful than could have been expected. Currently, there’s one adventure activity planned for later in the week 😎.

Happy #nationalhorseday to all the ponies I have had the pleasure to own and work with. Pictured are the five horses I have owned. Every horse is different, and I have appreciated all they have taught me, as well as all the others I have worked with, ridden, and driven.

Horsemanship is not something you get by paying for. It is not something that can be forced. It is not buying a horse for thousands of dollars that will make you look good. You can get a great horse or be given a great lesson, but can you keep that horse great? Do you make that horse better? Can that horse understand you and you she? Was the lesson worth the money? Were you taught to find your own way and feel the slight differences? Do you listen to your horse? Every horse is different, and every horse reflects its owner. Everybody's feel is unique and horsemanship is very personal and different for each. We must always remember that horsemanship and learning can come in all shapes and forms, and it doesnt always come from lessons or finished horses. It comes from a want to learn, listening and observing, and the confidence to push you and your horse to be better and softer. In doing so, question, always. The best teachers are the horses you listen to.

Our "You jump, I jump" moment 😀 5 years of togetherness and 2 years of being married to this guy and this is the craziest thing we've done so far! 😂 Awesome end to our anniversary trip in the South Pacific ❤
